12.30pm, Weather is gorgeous but still a little windy. A group of 30 walkers have arrived on Cape to do a ramble - excellent weather for walking.
10.30, Weather: the wind has calmed and the sky is blue. The odd drop of rain but I do believe that it will be very warm and sunny this afternoon and through into the evening.

Ferry should be on schedule but do check with the captain to be sure, to be sure.
